We had a wonderful stay at Zeus Mountain. The rooms are very clean and newly remodeled. The kitchen is spacious and the kitchen appliances are new. The view from the house is perfect and the swimming pool is well maintained. The check-in is easy and fast. Yannis is very helpful. I would highly recommend this place.
Wonderful, beautiful and stylish spacious apartment with stunning views and amazing hosts. Yannis and Birgit were so kind, welcoming, friendly and generous during our short stay that we wished we could have stayed longer.
The apartment is brand new and has everything you need for long stays. It's very quiet, the bed is so comfortable and it has a working desk and private parking.
Totally recommended!!
My family and I enjoyed a lovely week at this beautiful, brand-new villa, which features a spectacular view of Zeus mountain and the checkered olive groves and vineyards surrounding it. There are lovely walks along country lanes, and a village with a supermarket, two trendy cafes, and a butcher’s shop just 5 minutes’ walk away. Beautiful beaches are just 15-20 minutes’ drive away, along with all the shops and restaurants of Heraklion. Yannis and his wife are very friendly and responsive hosts. The villa itself has a lovely decor and many conveniences like a dishwasher, laundry and satellite TV. It is close to Knossos and the airport. The villa was so lovely that we ended up spending a lot more time there than we did touring around! We would highly recommend it.
